What does a local move in Key West cost?

A standard two-mover crew runs $100 to $150 or more an hour, with most jobs carrying a two-to-three-hour minimum. A studio through a two-bedroom typically totals $500 to $1,500. If you just need labor to load or unload a truck you've rented yourself, that runs about $80 an hour, or $320 to $625 for the full job.

What about moving from the mainland?

Coming down US-1 from Miami, Orlando or out of state, prices run about $1,200 for a small place and climb past $5,000 for a three-to-four-bedroom house, scaling with weight and mileage.

Why is a Key West move different?

There's only one road in and out, the Overseas Highway, so trouble at the Seven Mile Bridge crossing or a stuck drawbridge can stall a mainland crew for hours and push back your delivery window. Hiring a Key West-based company, or having a mainland crew arrive the evening before, avoids that risk. Narrow historic-district lanes and low tropical foliage can also mean a large truck can't reach your door, requiring a smaller shuttle vehicle.

What should I confirm before booking?

Ask whether a shuttle truck is needed and if that adds a fee, check for any historic-district parking permit requirements, and confirm the company is properly licensed for Florida moves. Photograph high-value items beforehand, since heat, humidity and island transit can loosen joints or damage fragile pieces.

Households arriving from another state report $207,410 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Florida report $120,418. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Monroe County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 61% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
